Freebirth Advocate,
Educator and Author

Heather Baker is a writer and author with subjects ranging from women's health to homebirthing. She was trained as a Traditional Midwife, doula and birth educator and has attended births since 1996. Mother to five children all born at home, four of which were completely unassisted, freebirths. She is natural health supporter and childbirth educator. "I believe there should be no governing factor in women's rights over the way they birth, with whom and when. I follow the ways of our elders and ancestors, using nature and healthy foods for nourishing, herbs for healing, as well as our intuition, free of conditioning by societal constraints. Parents should be the sole decision makers, taking on the care and responsibility fully, for their own selves and their child's well being."

 

As an experienced elder who believes in traditional holistic healing, I offer phone support for pregnancy, birthing, and postpartum. Also known as a Birth Keeper ~the term “birthkeeper” refers to a woman who supports a mother during pregnancy, the birth and the time after.  They encourage women to know their rights, empower themselves with knowledge to ensure that as women, they are claiming responsibility while welcoming babies as gently and powerfully into the world as possible in home birth and freebirthing.

 

If you have additional questions you may book a phone chat to discuss what you are looking for in your pregnancy, labor/birth and support system.
